2.0 out of 5 stars
I was disappointed in this book.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Celtic Book Of Names: Traditional Names from Ireland, Scotland, and Wales (Paperback)
I should have looked to see what else this author has written before I bought the book - her penchant for New Age subjects would have warned me off. I wanted a book with a lot of Celtic/Gaelic names for a baby. There are those, but half the book is taken up with surnames (not what I was interested in) and the names of Celtic deities (interesting, but again, not what I was looking for). And if you write a book with Gaelic names in it, PLEASE include a guide to pronunciation! I admit that my knowledge of Gaelic is pretty limited, but I am pretty sure that some of the pronunciations the author did give were wrong, which didn't exactly inspire a lot of trust in her research. All in all, I'll probably return it. |
